Company will grant access to its secure API to entrepreneurs at
Startupbootcamp, 25fifteen and Entrepreneurial Spark to help develop
innovative financial services

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Apr 24, 2014 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
Yodlee
Interactive, the recognized platform that works with hundreds of
companies, entrepreneurs and developers to create and distribute new
financial innovations, continues expanding its international reach today
by announcing partnerships with Startupbootcamp,
25fifteen
and Entrepreneurial
Spark – three leading international incubators and accelerators.
These partnerships will allow entrepreneurs in these programs to receive
mentorship from Yodlee Interactive’s financial technology experts and
access to the company’s unique cross-platform Application Programming
Interface (API), which provides secure access to over 12,000 global
financial data sources to forward FinTech innovation.

These various partner incubators and accelerators are aligned with
Yodlee Interactive’s vision of powering the best and brightest in tech,
with various programs to help startups succeed:

Startupbootcamp:
Startupbootcamp is a global accelerator which provides capital and
close mentorship to select startups, connecting them with the
accelerator’s global pool of over 750 volunteer mentors who provide
coaching as well as connections to customers, partners and investors.

25fifteen:
Based in Australia, 25fifteen is a group of successful entrepreneurs
and industry veterans who invest in and co-found startups, using their
experience, capital and relationships to help startups reach a
profitable exit.

Entrepreneurial
Spark: Entrepreneurial Spark is a business accelerator based in
Scotland that provides early stage ventures with an 18 month support
program aimed at growing and developing the individual entrepreneur
through mentorship, advice, networking opportunities and technical
resources.

"One of our main aims at Startupbootcamp FinTech is to provide startups
with the best resources possible during the course of the program – like
mentorship, investment and connections to our high-quality network of
industry influencers which Startupbootcamp is well-known for,” says
Nektarios Liolios, Managing Director of Startupbootcamp FinTech.
“However, in the FinTech space in particular, it's critical that
startups also have access to the most categorically accurate financial
data streams available. Access to this data is a real enabler for
innovation in the financial services space. Without it, startups simply
wouldn't be able to deliver products or services that are relevant to
the industry. That's why we’re pleased to be partnering with Yodlee
Interactive to add this service to our tool box.”

“FinTech innovation is one of the fastest growing technology spaces and
we’re proud to be the catalyst behind this growth everywhere,” says
Jason O’Shaughnessy, Vice President of International at Yodlee
Interactive. “Since 1999, we’ve been dedicated to helping make it easier
for people to handle their finances. We feel fortunate to now be at a
place where we are helping others follow that same mission.”

Yodlee Interactive offers its platform to hundreds of companies and
incubators internationally. Today’s announcement bolsters its existing
group of incubator partnerships that last fall added AngelPad
and LaunchPad
LA. Both incubators offer unique services to power their startups’
growth:

AngelPad:
AngelPad provides an extensive mentorship program to carefully
selected startups, covering all aspects of a company launch – from
idea to market fit, customer acquisition and incorporation – to
ultimately build better products, attract additional funding and grow
more successful businesses.

Last year, Yodlee Interactive also built international partnerships with Level39
in the United Kingdom, BlueChilli
in Australia and The
Icehouse in New Zealand.
